Play OverWatch Free From Nov 18th-21st 2016

Attention, recruits! If you haven't already had the opportunity to suit up and save the world as one of Overwatch's heroes, now's your chance.

From November 18–21, we're putting out the call to any prospective agents: assemble your team and dive in during the Overwatch Free Weekend on PC, PlayStation 4, or Xbox One!

For this free weekend, we're making Overwatch's full roster of 22 heroes and 13 maps available for play in a variety of modes, including Quick Play, Custom Games, and the latest Weekly Brawl. Players will also have the ability to level up, earn Loot Boxes, and unlock a variety of different customization options.

(Plus, if you decide to purchase a copy of Overwatch after test driving the game, you'll get to keep any progress that you made during the weekend—just be sure to use the same Battle.net, Xbox Live or Sony Entertainment account that you played on.)

When we started working on Battlefield™ 1, we started looking at how we could evolve and improve a number of Battlefield staples, including the roles you can fill. Classes have been a part of Battlefield since the beginning – whether you were deploying as a Medic in Battlefield 1942 or an Engineer in Battlefield 2142, you’ve felt the impact of how Classes change the game. This time around, we saw opportunities to make some changes, both in the roles of the different Classes and the general effectiveness of every Class in combat.

Want to learn more? Check out the Classes page on Battlefield.com. It includes a Q&A with myself (Julian Schimek, Weapons Designer on Battlefield 1) and YouTuber/Battlefield GameChangerWestie, as well as an overview of what makes each of the Classes in Battlefield 1 different and unique. Curious as to what you’ll want to deploy as first? Take a peek at the page, and stay tuned over the next few months as we reveal even more.

Along with a small teaser trailer earlier this week, DICE have posted a Q&A with weapon designer Julian Schimeck hinting at some of the more nuanced changes.
